Este libro hermoso ofrece un relato autobiográfico de resistencia extrema, según la Dr. Lisa Ramírez recuenta experiencias de su niñez frente a casos brutales de abandono y abuso en las manos de aquellos quienes debían haberle ofrecido amor, consuelo y protección. Recuenta sus propios fracasos al atentar el logro de una educación básica, mientras carecía necesidades básicas como un hogar, comida, y relaciones positivas—todos cuales son requisitos previos necesarios para sobrevivir y prosperar en un ambiente educacional. Mientras lea su relato, usted llegará a comprender porqué su historia es, por cierto, una historia hermosa. Usted llegará a obtener un entendimiento más profundo de la resistencia, y la principal diferencia que los educadores (y, de hecho,  aún todos nosotros como seres humanos) pueden hacer en las vidas de niños, aún mediante acciones (que aparentan) insignificantes. Usted aprenderá que la Dr. Ramírez no revela la historia de su vida sólo por titilar al lector, atraer atención o por denunciar a perpetradores. Más bien, su motivación es una de compasión, mientras atenta de ilustrar para otros (jóvenes o ancianos) quienes puedan estar sumidos en situaciones deprimentes, cómo es que la vida puede ser dulcificada por medio de la misericordia de Dios, la compasión de otros, y una educación competente. Por medio de su libro ella coerce a víctimas inocentes que estén en circunstancias similares que busquen el rayo de luz debajo de la puerta, el cual le ofrecerá esperanza y fuerza suficiente para ponerse de pie y seguir adelante.

This beautiful book offers an autobiographical account of extreme resiliency, as Dr. Lisa Ramirez recounts her early childhood experiences facing brutal instances of neglect and abuse at the hands of those that should have offered love, comfort and protection. She recounts her own failed attempts at pursuing a basic education, while lacking the bare necessities of a home, food, and positive relationships—all requisites for survival and thriving in an educational setting. As you read her narrative, you will come to understand why hers is, indeed, a beautiful story. You will gain a deeper understanding of resiliency, and the major difference that educators (and all of us as human beings, for that matter) can make in the lives of children, even through (seemingly) insignificant actions. You will learn that Dr. Ramirez does not disclose her life’s story, simply to titillate the reader, attract attention nor expose perpetrators. Rather, her motivation is one of compassion, as she attempts to illustrate for others (young and old) who might be mired in dismal situations, how life can be dulcified through God’s mercy, the compassion of others, and a competent education. Through her book she compels innocent victims in similar circumstances to look for that ray of light under the door that will offer hope and sufficient strength to stand up and move forward.

With a Foreword by Olympic Gold Medalist Dan O'Brien (Decathlon), Born Beautiful Biracial is a compilation of children’s essays with advice for kids who are asked questions about their racial and ethnic backgrounds:  “What are you?  Are those your parents?  Are you adopted?”  This book serves as an inspiration for biracial children and teenagers.  Everyone is unique.  We all have different faces, hair, eyes, noses, mouths and skin colors.  Not all of our parents look alike.  Many have one parent who is black and another who is white.  Others have one parent who is Asian and another who is black or white.  Regardless of how we look, we live in a multicultural, multiracial world, a world where many consider Barack Obama the first black President of the United States.  Barack Obama is biracial.  His mother was white and his father was black.  Maybe, one of the children who reads this book may even grow up to be President one day.  Hopefully, by then, it won’t be such a big deal, because everyone will accept each other unconditionally.

Growing Up & Facts of Life

“Are we home yet?” is a question many children ask on long journeys. But what if this “journey” involved homelessness? Meet Max, a little boy, who does not look forward to going home. He wants to stay at school because he has his own space! How is he like other little boys? How is he different? How do his troubles make him feel? Where does his journey lead? Read this children’s book and find out! Children who are homeless don't advertise their plight. They cover it up, often leaving teachers and counselors wondering why such a good student isn't keeping up in class. In “Are We Home Yet?”, readers go inside of a homeless child's life to learn about his thoughts, feelings, fears and concerns. But the book does more than share details about a child's difficult journey. It also shows the reader how, despite one's tough circumstances, he or she can learn to cope in healthy ways. “This story shares the perspective of children who are experiencing homelessness. It addresses the whole range of emotions, from anger and embarrassment to calm and hope. It encourages children to seek support through a difficult time. It definitely would be a needed addition to any school counselor's bookshelf!” -Sharon Stiefel, MA, NCSC, NCC for additional information about this title and related workshops visit www.tp-rewards.com/arewehomeyet
